4 year old boys health

4 year old boy with recurring colds, long periods of night time coughing following each cold (2-3 weeks) , pale in colour and recent diagnosis of low blood iron. Also a poor eater.I am worried about his health. Any ideas

Answer #1

All of these health issues maybe due to the fact that he is not eating properly. Having well balanced meals is an extremely important part of our health, especially for a young child. If you see that your child does not have an appetite then you should consider meal replacement alternatives like Ensure http://ensure.com/ or pediasure http://www.pediasure.com/homepage.cfm. These drinks come in all different types of flavors, so your child should have no problem finding a drink that he likes. Please consult a medical professional for more advice regard meal replacement alternatives

Answer #2

Take him to a doctor and have blood tests done. If there is anything wrong, the blood will show it. Those are symptoms of several thing, Leukiemia, sometimes, asthma (my brother was the same way) and who knows what else. Doctor visits are the best thing, and yes, make sure he eats healthy foods, and a instead of 3 big meals, try doing 4 or maybe 5 small meals.
